Sorry to hear, if you are willing to take it to a shop in OC, I can recommend the absolute best place, for sure not cheap, but since insurance is paying: anyway their work is immaculate, great attention to detail, etc

Thanks for the input guys. At least this incident occurred on the 2014. It would've been a crappy year to start off 2015 if it were to occur then. As for me, I suspect around 4k in damages.

zaimer · 01-01-2015, 09:52 PM

I'd say at least $3k in damages. My car had a a light scraping and a couple of small dents..over $2K in repairs. And if you think you situation is bad...I posted a week or so ago the "don't exile me" thread. I traded my Z in for a brand new Infiniti Q60S..got backed into Christmas Eve Night. I drove the car off of the showroom the Saturday before. Literally the third time driving my car.

. Car is currently in the shop for repairs. Dodge Dart rental FTW

OEM windshield + deep dent/scratch repair was about 2k with labour for me. about 1800 or so USD.

but do let us know how it goes... request OEM!

Yeah, she was so wide, she didn't see your car.

Sorry for the damage, but at least no one was hurt...

PhantaPhanta · 01-09-2015, 01:00 AM

Damn man, sorry to see that. I hope other side claims 100% fault. I got into an accident half a year ago with GF's RSX. Pulled out, Stopped as im switching from R to D, this person backs up into our car. My insurance claim 0% at fault, but other side only claimed 50% at fault and so we were only paid 50% of cost. "W.e happens in Parking Lot, its 50-50". Other party was state farm insurance. Ours was geico

axmea? · 01-09-2015, 02:26 AM

Any update? I've seen your car and you kept it clean. No swirls when I saw it.

Hey Rafael. My insurance is trying to get a hold of the other insurance. I don't know what's taking so long. I've called my insurance multiple times but they don't seem to be too concerned with my case. I already filed a compliant. It has been more than a week with 0 progress. I'll keep the thread posted once I have something going

Man, sucks to hear that. I hope my case doesn't fall into that kind of situation. As for me, I was just simply driving down the parking lot when she unexpectedly pulled out really fast, hitting the side of my beloved Z.

Your insurance company should go ahead and fix your car on your collision (and deductible) and then refund the deductible when her insurance pays. Sometimes you have to build a fire under the other insurances butt to get them moving too. They can drag their feet for weeks. Also ask them for depreciation to your car (you're going to take a hit on its value when you trade).
Hope all goes smooth.

RicerX · 01-09-2015, 09:57 AM

So what you're saying is... she... "backed up on it"...

If you don't mind me asking what insurance you have? In case I missed it.

I currently have First American Property&casualty Insurance Agency. I just love how ironic their insurance name is because I'm anything but "First" on their list.

And a little bit of update: After leaving about 5-6 voicemails, my insurance finally called me back and asked me to call the other party's insurance company to state what happened. I'll keep you fellows posted.
